1
Take full responsibility for what happens to you.
2
It's one of the highest forms of human maturity, accepting full responsibility.
3
It's the day you know you've passed from childhood to adulthood, the day you accept full responsibility.
4
I used to have that long list of reasons why I wasn't doing well. to explain.
5
You've got to explain, right?
6
Otherwise, you're going to look bad.
7
I used to have this funny list called Reasons for Not Looking Good.
8
I used to blame the government.
9
I mean, you can believe that or not.
10
It was at the top of my list.
11
I had a lecture second to none.
12
The government, that was on my list.
13
I used to blame taxes.
14
Look what you got left after they take everything.
15
And they expect you to do well.
16
That was on my list there.
17
Prices, that one's easy, right?
18
You walk into the supermarket with $20, come out with a little half bag.
19
So I had that on the list.
20
I used to blame the weather.
21
I blamed the traffic.
22
I used to blame my car.
23
I blamed the manufacturers.
24
I used to blame the company.
25
I blamed company policy.
26
I used to blame the training program.
27
I blame my negative relatives.
28
They were always putting me down.
29
I blame my cynical neighbors.
30
They're just selfish, looking out for themselves.
31
Won't loan you money.
32
They were on my list.
33
I used to blame the economy.
34
I blame the community.
35
That's a pretty good list for not doing well, isn't it?
36
I thought it was good.
37
I'll never forget one day, Mr. Shelf was very kind, but he was also very blunt.
38
And this was no exception.
39
And I'm glad he was blunt.
40
There's a lot of things I'd have missed if he hadn't have been blunt.
41
One day with sort of a curious look on his face, he said, Jim, just out of curiosity, tell me, how come you haven't done well up until now?
42
Excellent question.
43
I thought, well, so I won't look too bad.
44
I'll go through my list.
45
And this list I just gave you, I put that on him.
46
And he was very patient.
47
He let me go through the whole thing, the government, the weather.
48
I went through this whole thing.
49
When I finished, he looked my list over very carefully.
50
He said, Mr. Rohn, big problem with your list.
51
You ain't on it.
52
When I went to work for him a few months later, I learned very quickly to tear up my list, reasons for not doing well, and I threw it away.
53
And I got me a fresh piece of paper.
54
And I put one word on it.
55
Me.
56
There's a Black Heritage Spiritual that says, it's not my mother nor my father nor my brother nor my sister, but it's me, O Lord, standing in the need of prayer.
57
See, I used to blame everything outside.
58
And then let me give you a little philosophy that helped turn my life around.
59
For your notes, here it is.
60
It's not what happens that determines the quality or the quantity of your life.
61
It's not what happens.
62
And the reason is because what happens happens to about everybody.
63
No different.
64
The sun went down on all of us last night.
65
A common event, a happening.
66
And I found out that the same things can happen to two different people.
67
One gets rich and one stays poor.
68
Why is that?
69
It's because it's not what happens,
70
but rather it's what you do that changes everything.
71
So that's a key phrase.
72
It's not what happens.
73
It's what you do.
74
What happens is about the same.
75
You might put that in parentheses here.
76
Same.
77
What people do, that's what's different.
78
Somebody says, yeah, but you don't understand the disappointments I've had.
79
Come on.
80
Everybody's had their share.
81
Disappointments are not special gifts reserved for the poor.
82
Everybody has them.
83
The difference is what you do about them.
84
It's not the weather.
85
I used to blame the weather, and I discovered it rains on the rich.
86
So see, that won't help.
87
Two men wake up one morning, there's a rainstorm on.
88
One of them looks out his window, sees the rainstorm, and he says, wow, what a storm.
89
With weather like this, they can't expect you to go out and make sails.
90
He stays home.
91
Same morning, the other guy looks out his window, sees the same storm, says, wow, what a storm.
92
But he says, you know what, with weather like this, what a great day to go out and make sails.
93
Most everybody will probably be home.
94
Especially the salesman.
95
See, that's the difference in how your life works out.
96
It's not what happens, it's what you do.
97
So here's one of the key questions of the evening.
98
Starting tomorrow, what are you going to do that'll make a change in your life's direction?
99
Good question.
100
What are you going to do starting tomorrow that'll make a difference?
101
Now, see, if you don't do something starting tomorrow that'll make a difference, guess what?
102
It's gonna be the same
103
And see that way you can guess what the next five years are gonna be like look at the last five
104
Because the next five are gonna be like the last five unless you made your key tomorrow change it all
105
Or change a little or change something or don't change.
106
It's choice time.
107
You can do whatever you want
108
But it's nice to know any day you wish you can change your whole life
109
What can you do starting tomorrow that'll make a difference?
110
Good question.
111
What can you do with economic chaos, massive disappointment?
112
What can you do with a broken heart?
113
What can you do when it won't work?
114
Good question.
115
So if I had a word with you tonight, one-on-one, just you and me, I think my personal advice to you would be,
116
This year, reach down inside of you and come up with some more of those remarkable human gifts.
117
They're there waiting to be utilized.
118
And then change anything for you you want to change.
119
And I challenge you to do that because you can change.
120
If you don't like how it is for you, change it.
121
If it doesn't suit you, change it.
122
If it doesn't please you, change it.
123
If it isn't enough, change it.
124
And I challenge you to do that because you can change.
125
See, you don't ever have to be the same again after tonight, only by choice.
126
Self-reliance is basically counting on yourself, taking responsibility for whatever happens to you,
127
knowing that you have consciously made the decisions that are now affecting you,
128
knowing that what is happening now today is the direct result of your activity, what you did yesterday.
129
Now, being self-reliant doesn't mean you can't work with others or trust others.
130
Self-reliance means counting on yourself, trusting yourself, being confident with yourself,
131
being responsible to yourself, trusting your own instincts,
132
Trusting the conclusions that you have developed from your study of experiences and philosophies
133
Taking the credit that is due you Learning from the mistakes that you have made Being self-reliant
134
Gestalt psychologists give an example of being self-reliant They say that you're responsible for getting caught in the rain
135
They say that by deciding not to carry an umbrella every day you have made the decision to endure an occasional drenching.
136
Translation, by not being prepared, you make the choice of getting caught in some of life's unpleasant circumstances.
137
Be they rain, failures, economic losses, relationship losses, professional losses, personal losses.
138
By not being prepared, thinking ahead, it's your choice.
139
Now, here's the other side of it.
140
By being prepared, you increase your chances of success.
141
You increase the likelihood.
142
By being prepared, you increase your chances of success, of seizing opportunities when they come your way,
143
of being ready within yourself to take advantage of once-in-a-lifetime situations.
144
Some people tend to blame others for their mistakes, blame others for their failures.
145
somebody says it's not my fault the report isn't done so and so didn't do their part
146
of course it's your fault it's your report too it's your responsibility to see
147
that everyone you delegated work to does their part now you can't control what others around you do
148
but it's in your own best self-interest
149
that you stay on top of things especially if it's going to to affect your future.
150
You think your boss cares that John didn't do his part?
151
You think he sees John as the bad guy?
152
Of course not.
153
All he sees is that the report isn't done.
154
Bottom line.
155
Be responsible for the things that affect you.
156
You can make sure you're more responsible by checking in with those people who are working with you.
157
The people who make up your team.
158
You can be more responsible by saying, hey John, how are you doing with your part?
159
Do you need some help?
160
Can we put somebody else in here to help you finish?
161
Now, if John consistently doesn't handle his part, you've got to replace John.
162
If he isn't doing his share, you've got to find somebody that will. Or what?
163
It will negatively affect you.
164
You can't wake up in the morning that the project is due hoping and wishing that John has done his part.
165
No, you've got to be responsible because it's going to affect your career too.
166
Now, my approach to my better future very early on in
167
my career was to just go through the day with my fingers crossed.
168
And I used to say something like, I sure hope things will change for the better.
169
Then here's what I found out.
170
They're not going to change.
171
Somebody says, well, then how will my life ever change?
172
Answer, when you change.
173
When you change, when you get better, it'll get better.
174
If you change, it'll all change.
175
Don't put it on someone else.
176
Hope that someone else will change it for you.
177
Take responsibility for yourself.
178
Take personal responsibility.
179
You can't change the circumstances or the seasons or the wind, but you can change your reading habits.
180
You can change whether or not you go for the skills, burn the midnight oil, turn yourself around, multiply your value by 2, 3, 5, 10.
181
That you've got charge of.
182
That you have control of.
183
You don't have control of the constellations, but you've got control over whether or not you go to night school, take adult classes, learn some new skills.
184
You have control over that.
185
And if you don't, that's your fault.
186
You've got to take personal responsibility.
187
You've got to be self-reliant.
188
Nobody else can change your life, alter your ambitions, pave a golden road for you.
189
But you can.
190
It's up to you.
191
Be responsible for yourself.
192
Learn to reap the harvest without complaint.
193
This is a sign of growing maturity.
194
And here's where it comes from.
195
Taking full responsibility.
196
Take full responsibility for everything you do.
197
Be responsible to yourself.
198
It's your crop.
199
Whatever your paycheck is, take full responsibility.
200
You say, well, it's my employer.
201
No, it's not your employer.
202
You can become twice as valuable, three times as valuable.
203
Burn the midnight oil, learn some more skills, bring more value to the marketplace.
204
I'm telling you, whatever your harvest is, take it without complaint.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
